Chapter 284: Even if Gold Beans Fall from the Sky, You'll Sweep Them Away
"Father, no matter who from our Jin family goes to invite him, he probably won't pay us any attention."
Upon hearing these words in the grand hall, Jin Pu was momentarily stunned.
A sense of unease had already crept into his heart.
"What do you mean?"
"This Su Chen, the disciple from Celestial Capital who framed Yunyang Sect, he has these opportunities and even knows a master alchemist who can refine Jade Stone Pills."
"I didn't know about this before, and he was quite close to Yue'er at the time, so..."
Jin Pu felt a surge of anger rush to his head, and his vision seemed to turn white.
"So...did you arrange for someone to take action against him?"
As Jin Pu spoke, his wrinkled face trembled.
Hearing this, Jin Shen repeatedly shook his head.
"It wasn't that bad. I just gave him some threats to make him stay away from Yue'er. Nothing else."
Before he could finish, Jin Pu kicked the tea table next to him.
The entire tea table shattered instantly.
The grand hall became even quieter than before.
Jin Pu raised his head, staring intently at his eldest son, Jin Shen.
The veins on his hands bulged, showing how furious he was.
His sons and daughters couldn't even recognize the Jade Stone Elixir, and now they went to threaten others.
This was deliberately cutting off one of the Jin Family's paths to rise.
"Even if gold beans fall from the sky and land in our Jin Family, you'll sweep them away.
You've thrown away all the opportunities.
I was wondering how the Yao Family and the Bai Family managed to catch up with us over these years.
Now I have my answer. With your vision, it's no wonder our family is in decline."
Jin Pu's criticism went unanswered, and no one dared to refute him.
After scolding Jin Shen's generation, Jin Pu's gaze unconsciously fell on the remains of the Jade Stone Elixir.
"You're good at ruining things.
Your elixir refining skills are mediocre, but your talent for destroying elixirs is exceptional.
You're afraid I might gain insights from these remains, and that's why you crushed them into such fine pieces.
Didn't you even think for a moment when you got the elixir?
If you don't understand an elixir, can't you ask your elders?"
Jin Pu didn't hold back when scolding the Jin Family Head.
After his tirade, Jin Pu suddenly thought of something else.
"That's right. Your father, uncles, and aunts are all blind too.
Even if they examined the elixir, how much could they recognize?
All I can say is that this is the fate of our Jin Family.
The fate of decline has been sealed, and even heavenly luck can't change it."
After speaking, Jin Pu waved his hand, signaling the end of the conversation.
The discussion for the day was over.
Seeing that the others weren't leaving, the Jin Family Head took the lead and left.
In the grand hall, only after Jin Pu left did the rest of the Jin Family members start to disperse.
Jin Shen looked at his daughter. Earlier, he had criticized and blamed her.
After trying to persuade her, he found that she was still getting closer to Su Chen.
In this situation, he directly forced Jin Yue to return to the Jin Family.
Fearing that his daughter wouldn't listen, he even sent her brother to accompany her.
But the truth was, Jin Shen had thrown away all the opportunities for the Jin Family.
Three Jade Stone Elixirs, were sent back by him.
The remaining one was tricked into Shen Liunian's hands.
Returning to his room, Jin Shen slapped himself across the face.
His wife rushed over, concerned, and asked what had happened.
Jin Shen told her everything that had transpired that night.
Hearing this, his wife was also shocked.
The long-lost Jade Stone Elixir's value was hard to assess, as it had been lost for so long.
Speaking bluntly, a Jade Stone Elixir is what they want in exchange for Jin Yue's hand in marriage, and they would probably agree to it.
A Jade Stone Elixir, when given to the Jin Clan, will bring about a transformative change.
However, in the end, out of the six elixirs originally intended for the Jin Clan, only some residue remained.
Jin Yue's mother didn't know much about elixirs, but hearing her husband's words, she also understood the importance of the Jade Stone Elixir.
"Sometimes, you should trust your daughter's judgment."
"How bad could the man she sets her eyes on be?"
Hearing this, Jin Shen still shook his head.
"Actually, even now, I still trust my own judgment.
This Su Chen is not one of those Heaven's Pride disciples.
His current reputation is merely due to the methods of Celestial Capital suppressing the Yunyang Sect.
I just didn't expect that this Su Chen would also have some good fortune.
He actually managed to encounter a master who can refine Jade Stone Elixirs."
Jin Yue's mother didn't have much to say about this, but whatever her husband said, she agreed with.
"What should we do now?"
"Tonight, I've already sent people to chase after them, to see if we can retrieve the elixirs intended for the Jin Clan."
"The chances are slim, but let's keep some hope."
That night, Jin Shen kept praying in his heart.
He prayed that the person he sent out would walk slower, or even slack off a little on the way.
If they could retrieve the two Jade Stone Elixirs that were sent back, it would be a great boon for the Jin Clan.
Aside from praying, he also felt endless regret.
Those three elixirs, he should have changed his mind just a little.
He didn't return the two elixirs, nor did he take the remaining one to show off.
As long as he didn't go to such extremes, he could still leave a Jade Stone Elixir for the Jin Clan.
But he insisted on making such arrangements.
During his rest, Jin Shen was also making the worst-case preparations.
If everything turned out to be the worst-case scenario, what should the Jin Clan do?
After much thought, it seemed that all hope rested on his daughter.
If his daughter could get closer to Su Chen and make him his son-in-law, then what more could he ask for?
One more Jade Stone Elixir, and there would be no more problems.
The night passed.
Last night, the Jin Clan members were probably thinking about how to resolve this matter.
Before the third hour, the Jin Clan's family head had called Jin Yue to his courtyard.
When Jin Yue arrived, the core members of the Jin Clan were already present.
Including her father, Jin Shen.
However, today, he was directly positioned in a corner.
Seeing Jin Yue arrive, Jin Pu began to explain the pros and cons to his granddaughter, elucidating the predicament the Jin Clan faced.
To outsiders, the vast Jin Clan seemed unshakeable.
But the Jin Clan's family head was well aware that the clan had already started to decline.
If they were surpassed by the Bai Clan and the Yao Clan, the Jin Clan's minor issues would start to magnify.
Listening to her grandfather, Jin Yue felt uneasy.
To put it bluntly, he wanted her to return to Celestial Capital and get closer to Su Chen.
She didn't know why, but hearing these words, Jin Yue felt uncomfortable.
"Grandfather, is this Jade Stone Elixir really that important?"
Hearing this, Jin Pu nodded solemnly.
"Yes, even more important than you think."
The technique for refining Jade Stone Elixirs can greatly remove impurities from the elixir.
It significantly improves the quality of the elixir.
The reason why the Jade Stone Elixir is so pure is because the impurities are removed so thoroughly.
The useless residue and impurities in the elixir are almost completely gone, leaving only a tiny bit."
